Radio Stations and Birth Control

Maria points to this one notorious incident from 19 21, when a performer named olga petrova went on the radio and read an innocent, seeming nursery rhyme. Petrova was close friends with margaret sanger, who founded the american birth control league. At that point, it wasn't clear what content was allowed and what could get your license revoked. The original bleep began as a music that cut in suddenly to a broadcast that might be sort of matic.
